Broccoli Rabe (Rapini)

Broccoli Rabe (Rapini)

Broccoli Rabe (Rapini) can be bitter but most find it delicious. It is a leafy version of broccoil and barely needs cooking.  The stalks can be chewy and even more bitter, so just cut off the bottom part of the stalk (right where that link label is) and sautee with fresh garlic and olive oil.  It should not be overcooked, and still bright green.  This makes a great accompaniment to sweet or hot sausage, or even pasta dishes, or both! For those who find this too bitter, often you can enhance the flavor with some fresh squeezed lemon.
